and as the fella above mentioned, I just wish the media would hold every president to the same level of scrutiny that they did Bush.

You mean like how the press didn't scrutinize the false information we were told about Iraq's WMD and the imminent threat, because after 9/11 anyone who did so was labelled anti-American. It wasn't until we were stuck in Iraq that the media gave it real scrutiny and uncovered the falsehoods.

Of course Senator Obama said it was a mistake from the start, and he was proven correct.

But he has also taken the least amount of vacations of any black President. Go ahead, name one who has taken less.

I don't see why people give a shit about the President's vacation days, Bush or Obama, its not like these guys are ever really "off the clock." Do people think they just turn off their communication devices, dismiss their staff, and lounge on the beach all day?

It's an easy jab. There's plenty of good reasons to show he's terrible. In Obama's defense, Golf is slightly more interesting than 'clearing brush from his vacation home'.

Bottom line, we deserve better than what we've had in recent Presidents. We will end up getting an Anti-Obama who is really no different, the same as we got an anti-Bush (Obama) that's not much different. I'm sorry, but Drones, Kill Orders, covering Monsanto's ass, surveillance, partisan agendas, all sounds pretty Bush to me.
